A Mountie pulled a car over on the Trans-Canada about 2 miles west of
Strathmore, Alberta.
When the Mountie asked the driver why he was speeding, the driver answered
that he was a magician and a juggler on his way to Brandon to do a show that
night at the Shrine Circus and didn't want to be late.
The Mountie told the driver he was just fascinated by juggling, and if the driver
would do a little juggling for him then he wouldn't give him a speeding ticket.
The driver told the Mountie that he had sent all of his equipment on ahead and
didn't have anything to juggle.
The Mountie told him that he had some flares in the trunk of his patrol car
and asked if he could juggle them.
The juggler stated that he could, so the Mountie got three flares, lit them and
handed them to the juggler. While the man was doing his juggling act, a car pulled
in behind the patrol car. A drunk, good old boy, driving through from Saskatchewan
got out and watched the performance briefly.
He then went over to the patrol car, pulled open the rear door and got in.
The Mountie observed him doing this, went over to the patrol car, opened
the door and asked the drunk what he thought he was doing.
The drunk replied to the Mountie, "You might as well take me to jail 'cause
there's no f.cking way I can pass that test!"
